if you've selected YES to DATA INIT then its back to factory defaults.

The car is now ready for the self idle learn procedure. You simply need to do this. If the idle is jerky and unstable. Turn car to ACC, do DATA INIT again. Turn car off. Turn car on and follow idle self learn procedure, its in the FAQ in my signature

if you dont perform the self idle learn procedure the car will crank, start and stall almost immediately. if you have this, turn to ACC (dont start), choose DATA INIT, YES, turn car off and then perform self learn idle procedure

His car is not starting so he cannot do the self learning idle procedure.

joc - basically what you have done is resetted the power fc, if it has been tuned before which

sounds like it has then all the settings are gone if you havn't written them down.

Have you changed injectors or air flow meter?

thanks bhdave i thought somthing might be a miss but turn off boost controll kit and light went away,guys the car seems to be running alright now the test will be when i go and start it tommorow morning,like it did this morning spluttering and going on.Just one more question does the power fc have to get used to cold starts?

before you start the car, under monitor check out water temp

then jump to the corresponding water temp correctio braket and try increasing the MS value for it. make sure you note down the numbers before fiddling. it may help it crank over a bit better when cold. cubes has done this and it sorted out his cold start problems for water temp at 10deg

Yeah im going to tune it but am waiting to get cam gears and replace timing belt as it due to be replaced also i want to boost it so i dont want to tune it till then.but i thought with the power fc you could just plug and play,just as long as you dont go flooring it every where,anyway so you think its the water temp,maybe i should do the learn procedure in the morning when its cold what do u think?

    • If you've wired up the coils & injectors properly, & have the neo CAS loom for the trigger, it should all work. The VCT works the same way so just different plugs between s1 & neo. Assuming DBW if no IAC. Don't bother with the stock boost solenoid with g4x.
    • THERE IS NO IAT SENSOR ON ANY SINGLE TURBO RB. And the one on an RB26 is not for "engine control" - it's really too big and too slow and is only used for over-temp alarming (as far as I can tell). Anyway, you don't have one. You want/need one for the Link, then you need to buy one, find a spot for it, and wire it in. You do know that the stock boost solenoid is not capable of "control", right? It is merely on or off, for the low boost (5 psi) and high boost (7psi), which the ECU enforces mostly based on gear. The stock solenoid is not for PWM control and is not plumbed up in a way to provide it. If you want to control boost properly, then you need a proper MAC valve. And yes, you can wire either of them direct to the ECU. Well, I assume you can - I don't know what the boost solenoid pins on the plug and play Link are capable of. They really should be as capable as any normal Link - but seeing as it is plg and play, it might be limited to stock functionality. Read the doco.   You really do just want to plug stuff together without understanding how it works, right? I can't help you there. I don't know the plug types or pinning on half the stuff you're asking about. If I had to do it I would sit down with the wiring diagrams, the car/looms and a multimeter and work out what is what.
    • Light should be a pressure switch, not a sensor.
    • The pressure light likely has a different sender to a pressure gauge, its been too long for me to remember for sure. Just have a look for another sender down near the oil filter. If you are confident in your rewired pressure sender reading correctly, you can be pretty sure it is just the dash light's sender failing, it is a pretty common thing.
